Life-threatening intracranial hypertension in Reye's syndrome treated with intravenous thiopentone.

R C McWilliam, J B Stephenson.   

Abstract

A patient with Reye syndrome is described in whom cerebral perfusion pressure was reduced to less than 5 mmHg with loss of EEG activity. The intravenous administration of thiopentone reduced intracranial pressure and improved cerebral perfusion pressure with restoration of EEG and full recovery.
